Rendez-vous Houston: A City in Concert was a live performance by musician Jean Michel Jarre amidst the skyscrapers of downtown Houston on the evening of April 5, 1986, coinciding with the release of the Rendez-Vous album. For a period of time, it held a place in the Guinness Book of Records as the largest outdoor "rock concert" in history, with figures varying from 1 to 1.5 million in attendance. Rendez-vous Houston is remembered for being the concert which celebrated the astronauts of the Space Shuttle Challenger disaster, which had happened only two and a half months beforehand. One of Jarres friends, astronaut Ron McNair, had been killed in the disaster. He was supposed to play the saxophone from space during the track "Last Rendez-Vous"; his substitute for the concert was Houston native Kirk Whalum. Link to Wikipedia biography Read less
In Vedic astrology, the natal chart, also known as the birth chart or Janam Kundali, is a snapshot of the sky at the time of one's birth. When the Lagna (Ascendant) is in Libra, and more specifically in the Swati Nakshatra, there are several key characteristics and life themes that can emerge. Libra is ruled by Venus, the planet of love, beauty, and harmony. A Libra Ascendant often indicates a person who is diplomatic, charming, and values balance and fairness in their interactions. Swati Nakshatra, represented by a young plant shoot blown by the wind, symbolizes independence, adaptability, and a quest for freedom. Individuals with their Ascendant in Swati tend to be flexible, communicative, and sometimes restless, seeking to explore new ideas and paths. When Venus, the Lagna lord, is placed in the 7th house in Aries and in Ashwini Nakshatra, it adds another layer to this astrological configuration. The 7th house pertains to partnerships, relationships, and marriage. Aries, ruled by Mars, brings a fiery, assertive, and dynamic energy. Venus in Aries can indicate a passionate and enthusiastic approach to relationships, often seeking excitement and directness in partnerships. Ashwini Nakshatra, symbolized by a horse's head, represents speed, healing, and initiative. Venus in Ashwini can enhance a desire for swift action in relationships and a pioneering spirit, often bringing new beginnings and transformative healing in partnerships. This combination suggests a dynamic and lively personality with a strong focus on relationships. The individual is likely to be independent yet values harmonious partnerships. They might attract partners who are energetic and assertive, and there could be a tendency to seek balance between independence and togetherness. The presence of Venus in Aries, in the 7th house, can bring challenges in finding equilibrium between personal desires and the needs of a relationship, but it also offers opportunities for growth and exploration in partnerships.
